Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 
Luke 6:38

The Lord blesses us that we can bless others.  It feels so good to give and help another in their time of need. Especially this week with Thanksgiving. There are so many families that will do without because they just cannot afford such an extravagant meal. If we all pledged ourselves to one family this week, think of all the people we could spread God's message to. Call upon the Lord and ask Him to reveal a family to you that you can help.  Clean out your fridge and pantry and bag up some groceries and help feed a family. The seeds you will sow will manifest not only in their life but also in your own.  You can never out give God and when we give to His children, we give to Him for what we do for them, we are doing for Him.  We must stop giving from our excess and start giving from our own need. The bible tells us  that when we give, it will be given to us. Have you ever been in need? Was someone there to give you a helping hand? I have struggled and have hit tough times and let me tell you when someone offers of themselves to you to lend an ear, a dollar or a prayer, it encourages you and gives you hope in your moment of despair. So I pray that this message convicts your heart to do right and be a soldier for God. Glorify Him as you go out and be the light in someone's dark world. And have a safe and peaceful and thankful holiday season. God is so good.
